Is there any way to create a stacked column chart that has
columns touching side-by-side? If I use the standard
stacked column, there is a gap between the columns. I'll
try to illustrate (hope it works):


-----
| -------
| | |
----- | |
|------ |
| | |
| |------
----- | |
| | |
|------ |
| | |

Activate the chart, right click on a column and select Format Data Series.
Click on the Options tab and set the Gap width to your choice. Enter zero
(0) if you want them to touch.

Not sure about other versions, but if you are using XP you can double click
the chart to open the Microsoft Graph program. Right click on a column.
Choose format data series, then tab over to options. You can adjust the gap
width and depth there.
